It is the time in the season to start thinking about Premier League prize money. Arsenal missed out on not only the title but a record payout last campaign.<\/p>\n
Premier League clubs received a total of \u00a32.84billion last season, which was comprised of six payments through the division\u2019s \u2018central revenue system\u2019, something the Premier League says \u2018ensures the most equitable distribution of funds of any major European league\u2019.<\/p>\n
Manchester City\u00a0were paid \u00a3175.9m as champions \u2013 just short of their own record \u00a3176.2m in 2022\/23 \u2013 while runners-up Arsenal<\/strong><\/a> benefited from having the most games televised and were given \u00a3175.5m. They would have broken the record had they won the title.<\/p>\n Sheffield United received \u00a3109.7m for their efforts in finishing a distant bottom. It pays to be in the Premier League.<\/p>\n Some of those payments are fixed. All 20 clubs automatically receive around \u00a395m<\/strong> through an equal share distributed based on both the domestic (\u00a331.2m in 2023\/24) and international (\u00a355.7m in 2023\/24) broadcast deals \u2013 those TV rights are lucrative for a reason \u2013 as well as \u00a38.2m each from central commercial revenue streams.<\/p>\n The rest is variable, based on where clubs finish and how often their games are selected for broadcast.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n How much is each Premier League place worth?<\/p>\n The Premier League merit payments are distributed on a sliding scale from 1st to 20th, made up of combined earnings from domestic and international broadcast deals.<\/p>\n For the 2023\/24 season, the difference in prize money was around \u00a32.8m per position<\/strong>. Sheffield United were awarded as much for finishing bottom, all the way up to champions Manchester City receiving \u00a356.4m. It basically helped pay for 95.6% of Omar Marmoush.<\/p>\n That can be expected to fluctuate with inflation and other factors \u2013 it was \u00a33.1m per position in 2022\/23 \u2013 but it offers a rough guide as to what clubs should expect to earn this season.<\/p>\n READ MORE<\/strong>:\u00a0Arsenal miss out on Premier League prize money record with Crystal Palace the biggest final-day earners<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n What Premier League clubs will earn based on their position this season<\/p>\n The following is a breakdown of how much prize money each finish is worth, with the team currently occupying that place in the Premier League table<\/strong><\/a> brackets.<\/p>\n 1st (Liverpool) \u2013 \u00a356.4m<\/p>\n 2nd (Arsenal) \u2013 \u00a353.5m<\/p>\n 3rd (Manchester City) \u2013 \u00a350.7m<\/p>\n 4th\u00a0(Newcastle) \u2013 \u00a347.9m<\/p>\n 5th\u00a0(Chelsea) \u2013 \u00a345.1m<\/p>\n 6th\u00a0(Aston Villa) \u2013 \u00a342.2m<\/p>\n 7th\u00a0(Nottingham Forest) \u2013 \u00a339.4m<\/p>\n 8th (Brighton) \u2013 \u00a336.7m<\/p>\n 9th\u00a0(Brentford) \u2013 \u00a333.8m<\/p>\n 10th\u00a0(Fulham) \u2013 \u00a331m<\/p>\n 11th (Bournemouth) \u2013 \u00a328.2m<\/p>\n 12th\u00a0(Crystal Palace) \u2013 \u00a325.4m<\/p>\n 13th\u00a0(Everton) \u2013 \u00a322.5m<\/p>\n 14th (Wolves) \u2013 \u00a319.7m<\/p>\n 15th\u00a0(West Ham) \u2013 \u00a316.9m<\/p>\n 16th (Manchester United) \u2013 \u00a314m<\/p>\n 17th\u00a0(Spurs) \u2013 \u00a311.3m<\/p>\n 18th (Leicester) \u2013 \u00a38.5m<\/p>\n 19th (Ipswich) \u2013 \u00a35.7m<\/p>\n 20th (Southampton) \u2013 \u00a32.8m<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Where each Premier League club can still finish<\/p>\n Every club has played 37 games so far this season, and all but champions Liverpool, local rivals Everton and doomed Southampton can still mathematically finish in a range of different positions with varying prize money attached.<\/p>\n The following is a breakdown of what each club is still competing to earn this season beyond European qualification or survival, based on their possible league finishes.<\/p>\n Liverpool \u2013 1st (\u00a356.4m)<\/p>\n Arsenal \u2013 2nd (\u00a353.5m) to 3rd (\u00a350.7m)<\/p>\n Manchester City \u2013 2nd (\u00a353.5m) to 7th (\u00a339.4m)<\/p>\n Newcastle \u2013 3rd (\u00a350.7m) to 7th (\u00a339.4m)<\/p>\n Chelsea \u2013 3rd (\u00a350.7m) to 7th (\u00a339.4m)<\/p>\n Aston Villa \u2013 3rd (\u00a350.7m) to 7th (\u00a339.4m)<\/p>\n Nottingham Forest \u2013 3rd (\u00a350.7m) to 7th (\u00a339.4m)<\/p>\n Brighton \u2013 8th (\u00a336.7m) to 9th (\u00a333.8m)<\/p>\n Brentford \u2013 8th (\u00a336.7m) to 12th (\u00a325.4m)<\/p>\n Fulham \u2013 9th (\u00a333.8m) to 12th (\u00a325.4m)<\/p>\n Bournemouth \u2013 9th (\u00a333.8m) to 12th (\u00a325.4m)<\/p>\n Crystal Palace \u2013 9th (\u00a333.8m) to 12th (\u00a325.4m)<\/p>\n Everton \u2013 13th (\u00a322.5m)<\/p>\n Wolves \u2013 14th (\u00a319.7m) to 17th (\u00a311.3m)<\/p>\n West Ham \u2013 14th (\u00a319.7m) to 17th (\u00a311.3m)<\/p>\n Manchester United \u2013 14th (\u00a319.7m) to 17th (\u00a311.3m)<\/p>\n Spurs \u2013 14th (\u00a319.7m) to 17th (\u00a311.3m)<\/p>\n Leicester \u2013 18th (\u00a38.5m) to 19th (\u00a35.7m)<\/p>\n Ipswich \u2013 18th (\u00a38.5m) to 19th (\u00a35.7m)<\/p>\n Southampton \u2013 20th (\u00a32.8m)<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n What are facility fees?<\/p>\n The only other part of the prize money which is not fixed and shared equally are the facility fees, which are based on how many times each club has been selected for television.<\/p>\n In 2023\/24, Arsenal had 31 games televised in the UK, for which they received \u00a326.9m in facility fees. Liverpool had 29 matches and were paid \u00a325.2m, while Manchester City, Manchester United and Spurs (all 28 games) were given \u00a324.4m each.<\/p>\n Burnley were shown on the fewest occasions and received \u00a39.3m in facility fees for their 10 live televised UK fixtures.<\/p>\n This can lead to discrepancies in terms of those variable payments. Everton\u2019s prize money after finishing 15th last season was \u00a3132.2m, more than the three clubs immediately above them \u2013 Wolves (\u00a3130m in 14th), Fulham (\u00a3128.6m in 13th) and Bournemouth (\u00a3131.5m) \u2013 as the Toffees were picked for far more live TV games. Their UK facility fee payment of \u00a320.2m was the seventh highest in the league alongside Newcastle, and higher than fourth-placed Aston Villa\u2019s (\u00a319.4m).<\/p>\n Spurs in 5th (\u00a3164.6m) were paid more overall than Villa in 4th (\u00a3162.4m), while 8th-placed Manchester United (\u00a3156.2m) took home more than 7th-placed Newcastle (\u00a3154.7m).<\/p>\n Based on this, Arsenal stand to again earn the most of any club in facility fees this season, with Ipswich faring the worst.<\/p>\n MORE ON PREMIER LEAGUE SPENDING FROM F365<\/strong> \u00a0<\/p>\n What Premier League clubs will earn based on their TV selection this season<\/p>\n Sky Sports and TNT Sports have made all their Premier League TV picks for the season, with some inevitably selected slightly more often than others.
